POSTED ON 1/3/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 2/2/2026
About The Job

At Alignerr, we partner with the world’s leading AI research teams and labs to build and train cutting-edge AI models.

You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like fluid dynamics, thermodynamics, structural mechanics, and mechatronics—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.

Organization: Alignerr Position: Mechanical Engineering - AI Data Trainer Type: Hourly Contract Compensation: $35–$60 /hour Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You’ll Do

  • Develop Complex Problems: Design advanced mechanical engineering problems across domains like FEA (Finite Element Analysis), heat transfer, kinematics, and material science to test AI performance.
  • Author Ground-Truth Solutions: Create rigorous, step-by-step technical solutions and "golden responses" that the AI will use as a benchmark for learning.
  • Technical Auditing: Evaluate AI-generated CAD logic, thermodynamic proofs, and material specifications for technical accuracy, safety, and adherence to engineering standards (e.g., ASME, ISO).
  • Refine Reasoning: Identify logical fallacies in AI reasoning—such as incorrect force distributions or energy conservation violations—and provide structured feedback to improve the model's "thinking" process.

Requirements

  • Advanced Degree: Masters (pursuing or completed) or PhD in Mechanical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a closely related field.
  • Domain Expertise: Strong foundational knowledge in core areas such as solid mechanics, fluid mechanics, CAD/CAM, or manufacturing processes.
  • Analytical Writing: The ability to communicate highly technical concepts and complex physical phenomena clearly and concisely in written form.
  • Attention to Detail: High level of precision when checking mathematical derivations, unit conversions, and physical system constraints.
  • No AI experience required

Preferred

  • Prior experience with data annotation, data quality, or evaluation systems
  • Proficiency in engineering software concepts (e.g., SolidWorks, MATLAB, ANSYS) to evaluate AI-generated code or workflows.

Why Join Us

  • Competitive pay and flexible remote work.
  • Collaborate with a team working on cutting-edge AI projects.
  • Exposure to advanced LLMs and how they’re trained.
  • Freelance perks: autonomy, flexibility, and global collaboration.
  • Potential for contract extension.

Application Process (Takes 15-20 min)
